Default Whats the consensus on weight lifting and PCS healing?

I saw Mark recommend against it when reading another thread.

Overall, my symptoms have definitely improved in past weeks. I unfortunately had to go back to work after christmas and that has resulted on occasional headaches but nearly all other symptoms are reduced in their intensity.

I've considered heading back to the gym. I don't mean huge power workouts with squats and deadlifts. But rather mild-moderate weight lifting in a controlled fashion. I think it would help a lot with the 'depression' and feeling back to normal.

My doctor cleared me to train a while back, but with having to work already aggravating the symptoms I don't really want to do more than I have to.
Thanks for any tips.
